Tons of lucky sizes and tons of, well, casual and uber trendy stuff — but there is some serious gold in there. For example: I like this sweetheart skater dress, … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: Sweetheart Neckline Jersey Skater Dress

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. This is my first year hearing of this sale, but readers noted a few weeks ago that L&T historically marks a lot of their cashmere down to $50ish a few days before Christmas. Lo and behold, ladies: I think that … Read More about Monday’s TPS Report: Striped Cashmere Sweater
